They were formerly included in the genus ''Goniobasis'', together with the western ''Juga'' species. Species Species within the genus ''Elimia'' include: * '' Elimia acuta'' * mud elimia (''Elimia alabamensis'') * black-crest elimia (''Elimia albanyensis'') * '' Elimia ampla'' (Anthony, 1854) * Lily Shoals elimia (''Elimia annettae'') * '' Elimia aterina'' * walnut elimia (''Elimia bellula'') * flaxen elimia (''Elimia boykiniana'') * short-spired elimia (''Elimia brevis'') * Cahaba elimia (''Elimia cahawbensis'') * spindle elimia (''Elimia capillaris'') * Sharp-crest Elimia (Elimia carinifera) * closed elimia (''Elimia clausa'') * lacy elimia (''Elimia crenatella'') * Balcones elimia (''Elimia comalensis'') * banded el ...

Elimia Virginica
''Elimia virginica'', common names the Piedmont elimia or Virginia river snail, is a species of freshwater snail with an operculum, an aquatic gastropod mollusc in the family Pleuroceridae. Distribution Indigenous distribution ''Elimia virginica'' is native to the United States east of the continental divide. The species occurs in large Atlantic coast rivers in eastern North America, from Massachusetts to Virginia. The northeastern limit of the native range of the species is the lower Connecticut River. The distribution of this species is shrinking in the native Connecticut River, and it is considered rare in Connecticut. Its conservation status in the Connecticut River Watershed is W1 (''"a rare species, with 20 or fewer known occurrences in the watershed states"''). The conservation status of ''Elimia virginica'' according to NatureServe, is as follows: * United States of America – secure. ** Massachusetts – presumed extirpated. ** Connecticut – critically imperile ...

Lacy Elimia
The lacy elimia also known as the lacey elimia, scientific name ''Elimia crenatella'', is a species of freshwater snail with a gill and an operculum, an aquatic gastropod mollusk in the family Pleuroceridae. This species is endemic to the United States, specifically the state of Alabama. The snail has been listed as threatened on the United States Fish and Wildlife Service list of endangered species since October 28, 1998. Description The lacy elimia is a small species in the family Pleuroceridae. Growing to about 1.1 centimeters (cm) (0.4 in) in length, the shell is conic in shape, strongly striate, and often folded in the upper whorls. The shell color is dark brown to black, often purple in the aperture, and without banding. The aperture is small and ovate. The lacy elimia is easily distinguished from other ''Elimia'' species by a combination of characters (i.e., size, ornamentation, color). Genetics In a recent genetic sequence study of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
